Respect & manners

  • Avoid demonstrations, crowds and military or police sites. Never photograph them.
  • Carry your passport (and a copy) at all times; follow curfews and checkpoints instructions calmly.
  • Keep a charged phone, cash, water and a small emergency bag ready.
  • Share your plans with someone you trust and with your embassy's registration service if it exists.
  • Kidnapping and terrorism risk is very high, including at sea.
